Residential electrical work in the DuPage area
Many homes in the area were built decades ago, with the median year built for DuPage County housing around 1978 according to Census-based figures. Older panels and circuits are often the reason homeowners call.
Electrical codes and permit rules are set locally. The 2020 National Electrical Code applies in the unincorporated areas of DuPage County, and cities and villages adopt their own codes. See the project gallery for residential work.
